[quote=Anonymous]What grade? I toured the lower school and liked everything I saw EXCEPT the Spanish class. It was terrible. Old fashioned, repeat after the teacher verb conjugations which have been out of style for 20 years in language pedagogy. The kids were asleep. I would not transfer an immersion student into a program like that. If you don't have the language at home, he/she will surely lose it. I can't speak to the upper school - never toured there.[/quote]
